HEY LEGO: WHY DON'T YOU OFFER THIS IN THE US?

If I saw the same items offered here, for the US, I'd have a massive order
going as quick as I could, never mind the bank account. I'm sure there are
plenty of people that would immediately order large amounts of parts. (HEY
LEGO: HERE'S A CHANCE TO MAKE SOME $$$ !!!)

Man...I just checked out the UK S@H area and you're right; they seem to have
all the old service packs (the 1988-1991 ones) available. I can't believe
they still manufacture the 2x2 square pistons, the old pre-1994
differentials and those screw axles/nuts. Some of these things are really
hard to come by. Does anyone know if they offer international shipping
methods to US customers?

(...) I dunno, yet. I've sent an email to S@H in both the US and Europe asking that question. When I get a response, I'll post it here. T. J. (23 years ago, 4-May-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.dear-lego)
